Technical:

It is normal for some areas of the laptop to be warmer.These areas are usually where the Fan and Hard Disk Drive are located within the laptop.

Laptop models that use higher end Processors and/or with Dedicated Graphic Processor will dissipate more heat and thus feel warmer than those that use lower end Processors and without Dedicated Graphic Processors.This is same to the AC/DC Adaptors with higher current output rating as compare to those with lower current output rating.

Please always ensure that the air vents on the laptop chassis are free from blockages when the laptop s in operation so as to ensure the hot air within can be expelled out of the laptop effectively.

The laptop has a built-in heat sensor that can auto power off the machine if the heat within the chassis builds up over the pre-set temperature level, that is overheats.Please do not worry that the laptop will burn unless it has been subjected to inappropriate or negligent usage. If your laptop should auto power off during operation, please contact Suzuki Service Centre near you for assistance.Clickhere for the contacts.

As the feeling and tolerance of heat is subjective to different individuals, if you find you have a lower heat tolerance, avoid using the laptop in a position that the chassis comes in contact with your skin for a long period of time.

2. Why is the display on my notebook dim?

This would happen if you unplug the AC/DC Adaptor from the laptop and operate with the Battery alone.This display dimming function is to help to reserve the Battery power consumption.If you prefer the display to be brighter, press Fn+F9 otherwise press Fn+F8 to decrease the display brightness further.Alternatively you could change the Power Scheme Setting through the Power Option in Windows XP or set the Adaptive Display setting to Off through the Change Advise Power Settings selection in the Power Option in Windows Vista.

However if your display is so dim to the extent that you can barely see what the screen displays, this could be cause by a hardware problem, as such please contact the Suzuki Service Centre near you. Clickhere for the contacts.

The HDD in the laptop has a fragile mechanism and is susceptible to damage through sudden shock which will cause the disk surface to be scratched. When this happens, the information held on the disk could be damaged or loss. This is the most common cause of HDD failure and is not a manufacturing defect.

Please ensure you wait for the HDD indicator light to go out before they move the computer. In addition, please take extra measure to avoid the laptop from dropping or subjected to sudden impact even if it is stored in a carrying case/bag.

A HDD may not be expensive to replace but the data within are not replaceable or cover under any warranty should the HDD fails.Data recovery services provided by a professional third-party organization (Suzuki Technology does not provide this form of services) are very expensive and your lost data is not guaranteed to be 100 percent recoverable.As such the only method to secure and protect your data is to backup your data on a regular basis.In addition, consider keeping two exact copies of your valuable data, this is to ensure if one storage device fails, you still have another source that stores the other copy.

4. Why is the Battery in the laptop not holding charge, has short battery life, or does not last?

The Battery in your laptop is a rechargeable type which is similar to the one found in your mobile phone.The charge holding time of a rechargeable Battery can vary due to the following causes: shelf life; charge cycle used, product model configuration, applications, power management settings and features utilized, as well as the natural performance variations produced by the design of individual components.

Published battery life numbers cannot remain the same over time and are subject to change based on how the Battery is usually charged and/or how the laptop is operated. When a Battery has gone through many charge and recharge cycles, the battery will lose its ability to perform at maximum capacity. This is normal for all batteries.

HDD passwords are designed to be 100% secure and there is nothing available to reset or remove the HDD password. Users must ensure they have regular data backups. A new HDD will be required and is not covered by the standard warranty.

6. Why does my laptop sometimes run slower than normal or lagging?

One of more of the following could possibly cause a laptop to run slower or lags:

a)Automatic Virus updates/background scans

b)Automatic Windows updates

c)Logging into a network

d)Running on batteries instead of A/C power (Could improve by reconfiguring Power Management settings)

e)Too many applications running (Can consider exiting applications that are not currently not in use)

f)Virus scanner or Firewall may be blocking a file or application which requires user intervention

g)Software conflicts or incompatibility with hardware (Try checking the hardware requirements and/or uninstall any recently installed software before the unit started slowing down or locking up)

h)Software applications may need updated drivers or patches (Try to check the manufactures website for any updates and patches)

i)Hardware peripherals incompatibility (Try to remove/detach any peripherals connected to the laptop and check manufactures website for any updated drivers and patches)

j)Reboot machine if unit has not been rebooted in a long time as this will restart/refresh any used cycles that may be looping in the background

k)Hung application (Try to check the Windows Task Manager for any applications that says "not responding" and end task on those applications)

l)Extreme temperature or dusty environment (The laptop may over heat if temperature is too hot, or fan/vents are clogged with dust causing insufficient ventilation)

m)Transferring or installation of large files may cause the machine to run slow (Try to wait until hard drive activity stops and performance will be restored to normal)
